Final Score: Liverpool 8 – Besiktas 0

That’s right, eight to zero!  A Champions League record. At this point I don’t care if we get out the group stages or not, at least we made a substantial mark…. Okay, I do care if we get out, but boy did we need that kind of victory.

I needed that kind of victory. With the adoption going the way it is, the turmoil and uncertainty- I feel bad that a football match can even have this kind of affect on me, but it does. I needed something to lift my spirits. 

I don’t want to think about the match analysis, whether or not this should be the starting eleven all the time, whether or not Benitez deserves the credit, etc., etc., blah, blah, blah.  I want to savor the win for what it is.  C’mon Reds!
